TYLT had some new toys to show off at CES this year, and although we were not there in person, we have been given some info about them to share with you. These products will not be out in the UK until about June, but nonetheless they are ones to keep on your radar. I have used a TYLT power pack for nearly five months now since I acquired one back in September at IFA.
They are high quality and well-designed charger packs, and the new ones that have been unveiled are taking advantage of the newer charging technologies brought around by the use of USB Type C and QI charging.
Let’s see what they’ve got then.
Those are your wired charging solutions, but TYLT also has a raft of battery packs as well.
Last, we have the daddy of portable power: the TURBO Smart Chargers.
These beasts are able to not just charge your phones, but also your tablets and laptops (where USB Type-C is available). They also have a direct mains plug that allows you charge the units quickly by plugging straight into the wall. Your power needs are met by a 13,400mAh internal battery, QuickCharge 2.0 integration, one USB Type-C port, one 2.4A USB Type-A port. Using TYLT’s PowerProng technology will allow you to charge these units in two and a half hours.
So there we have it. The all-new power solutions from TYLT. As I mentioned before, these units won’t be shipping until Mid-summer, and as such we have no pricing available for them. We will update you as and when the pricing in the UK goes live. I know it’s hard to get excited about power supplies as a whole, but I am pretty keen to see the latest models and how they really work when they come into the UK.
TYLT UNVEILS POWERFUL NEW BATTERY PACKS & Qi WIRELESS CHARGERS AT CES 2016

LAS VEGAS, January, 2016-TYLT, a global leader in wireless charging and portable power, recently unveiled several new products, including Qi chargers, battery packs and smart chargers, at the 2016 International Consumer Electronics Show.

Four rapid charging 2.4A USB ports enable users to charge their devices twice as fast as standard wall chargers. An additional 1A port doubles as a removable, rechargeable 3,200mAh battery pack. With a built-in cable management system, this compact charging station only uses one outlet but provides 50W maximum power. Photos | Spec Sheet
